Finite State Morphology and Sindhi Noun Inflections
نویسندگان
چکیده
Sindhi is a morphologically rich language. Morphological construction include inflections and derivations. Sindhi morphology becomes more complex due to primary and secondary word types which are further divided into simple, complex and compound words. Sindhi nouns are marked by number gender and case. Finite state transducers (FSTs) quite reasonably represent the inflectional morphology of Sindhi nouns. The paper investigates Sindhi noun inflection rules and defines equivalent computational rules to be used by FSTs; corresponding FSTs are also given.

A connectionist model of english past tense and plural morphology
The acquisition of English noun and verb morphology is modeled using a single-system connectionist network. The network is trained to produce the plurals and past tense forms of a large corpus of monosyllabic English nouns and verbs. The developmental trajectory of network performance is analyzed in detail and is shown to mimic a number of important features of the acquisition of English noun a...
متن کاملDomain Focused Named Entity Recognizer for Tamil Using Conditional Random Fields
In this paper, we present a domain focused Tamil Named Entity Recognizer for tourism domain. This method takes care of morphological inflections of named entities (NE). It handles nested tagging of named entities with a hierarchical tagset containing 106 tags. The tagset is designed with focus to tourism domain. We have experimented building Conditional Random Field (CRF) models by training the...
متن کاملThe Acquisition of Case-Marking by Adult Learners of Russian and German
This study investigated the acquisition of overt morphological case by adult native speakers of English who were learning Russian or German as a second language (L2). The Russian casemarking system is more complex than the German system; but it almost always provides the listener with case inflections that are reliable cues to sentence interpretation. Two approaches to learning of inflectional ...
متن کاملA selective deficit for inflection production.
We report the case of an English-speaking aphasic patient (JP) with left posterior-frontal damage affecting the inferior frontal and precentral gyri. In speaking, JP was impaired with the regular inflections of nouns and pseudonouns, making errors like "pears" instead of pear or "door" for doors, while the spoken production of noun stems and irregularly inflected nouns (teeth) was preserved. JP...
متن کاملA Finite-State Morphological Analyser for Sindhi
Morphological analysis is a fundamental task in natural-language processing, which is used in other NLP applications such as part-of-speech tagging, syntactic parsing, information retrieval, machine translation, etc. In this paper, we present our work on the development of free/open-source finite-state morphological analyser for Sindhi. We have used Apertium’s lttoolbox as our finite-state tool...
